    Hi there

    So I've been really trying to nail the squat form down.

    I am having no end of trouble with 'keeping the chest up' out of the hole.

    Also, when un-racking, as the weight has got heavier it has started to put a heavy strain on my right arm. It started radiating down my forearm and into my elbow. I can't seem to get it into the proper position when unracking, whereas my left hand/arm seems generally fine.

    I have 3 videos, first one is all 3 sets for 90kg

    YouTube

    Other 2 are my 2nd and 3rd set of 92.5kg

    I do have me squatting 95kg for 2-3 reps but I feel these videos give a better overally look at my current form and what I am doing incorrect

    I feel my problem with the chest up is my rounded shoulders/kyphotic back. It has been also heavily effecting my deadlift form too.I just naturally have a rounded back and bad posture.
